Monthly tracking workbook I use to track employee sales metrics; Trying to find a way to make the process less labour intensive

Truly having a hard to describing my issue effectively but hoping someone can help. First time posting here and I'm by no means an expert with excel, so please be kind!

I have a monthly workbook where I track each employees revenue and other metrics. Every 2 weeks for payroll, I provide a print out of these numbers, and the payroll sheet pulls data from multiple sheets in the workbook.

For example, every workbook has a separate sheet for each day of the month, titled "1" through "31". I have pay period sheets, so I'll use one titled "04.02.26 - 04.15.26". Then I'll have the data for each employee pulled from multiple sheets.

For example, I use the formula =SUM('2:15'!E3) to pull the sales data from each day of that period for the specific employee. This works quite well. However, when I create a new month's spreadsheet, I have to manually alter this formula for each employee and for each data point (more than just revenue, at least 6 different data points for 7 employees). Is there a way to automate this? For example, a cell or two where I'm able to enter the date range and all of the formulas update to that date range for the corresponding pages?

I'm sorry of this post is confusing. Truly it's confusing even typing it!
